What is the main difference between this Stage 2 pressure plate and a stock one?

This Stage 2 pressure plate from SPEC is designed to offer a higher clamping force than a factory pressure plate. This allows it to handle more torque without slipping, making it suitable for modified engines or demanding driving conditions.

Does this pressure plate come with a clutch disc or flywheel?

No, this product is for the pressure plate only. You will need to purchase a compatible Stage 2 clutch disc and potentially a flywheel separately to complete your clutch assembly.

What kind of driving is this pressure plate best suited for?

This Stage 2 pressure plate is ideal for drivers who have upgraded their engine's power output or who frequently engage the clutch under high load, such as in spirited driving or track use. It offers improved durability and engagement over stock components.

About this part

Product Details

SPEC is known for making well-built clutch components that handle more power than stock. This Stage 2 pressure plate is a prime example, designed specifically for the 4.2L V8 engine found in the 2007-2009 Audi S4 and RS4 models. If you're looking to upgrade your clutch system to handle increased engine output or just want a more robust setup, this pressure plate is a solid choice.

This pressure plate is engineered to work with a Stage 2 clutch disc, which typically offers a higher torque capacity than a standard clutch. The design focuses on providing a strong clamping force to ensure smooth engagement and prevent clutch slippage, even when your engine is making significant power. While it's sold as a pressure plate only, it's intended to be part of a performance clutch kit, so you'll need to pair it with a compatible clutch disc and potentially a flywheel to complete the installation. SPEC's attention to detail in their manufacturing means you can expect a part that fits right and performs reliably.

When installing this pressure plate, it's important to follow the manufacturer's recommended procedures. Ensure your flywheel is resurfaced or replaced, and that all mating surfaces are clean. This pressure plate is a key component for anyone pushing their Audi's drivetrain to the next level, offering a noticeable improvement in clutch performance and durability under demanding conditions.
